I need to buy a new cabinet for P4 ... I would like to try Ibox i531 or KM series from Mercury (VIP or Antec is too costly for me) ... have anyone tried these cabinets ??? If u know of any other good brands (which are available in Kolkata) within 2k, kindly let me know

A cabinet with a transparent side will be welcome 8)

He has said that Antec is too costly for him and you still advise the same ?

Yeah I have the Mercury cabinet . It surely is a good one and is very spacious.You can judge that from the fact that although I have 4 Fans inside it there is still a lot of space remaining.

It provides good airflow and dust protection.

Go for it dude and you will rest in peace thereafter.

Guess what ... I bought a NAVTECH cabinet ( 2688 B) ... its got a 450 W psu, a blue LED temperature indicator, two side panel fans which go into action whenever the cabinet temperature goes above 38C (u can change this setting) and provision for adding a 90 mm fan at the back ... all these for 2k 8)

On the flip side, the psu is too light to be of 450 W but it must at least be 400W

for any of u who is interested , heres the link

Anyway thanks to all u wonderful ppl who gave their suggestions
